graham Posted January 28, 2017 Author Share Posted January 28, 2017 tried to get a few pics of the office. The little claas is bringing some logs for the woodburner in the office. A brace of pheasants hanging up, getting near the end of the season, tractor driver went on his beaters day. The fendts been out trimming the braeburns not much happening in the hop gardens this time of year. We roughly have 100,000 individual fruit trees on the Stooks, we will soon start putting out some moths traps which are just sticky pads that stop the moths laying their eggs and stopping us from having fruit. The frosty weather has been keeping the moths at bay but they will soon be back. I hope you have enjoyed looking. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
